lavender and roses

..for September heart challenge we were to create a heart of newsprint that was 'all cottony' .. light and fluffy .. I covered my cottony heart with a piece of very old paper , precious to me ... which is the reason I used it for my heart.
..for October heart challenge we were to achieve a wax finish ..I used liquid pearls, Golden Interference Orange and black shoe polish to buff, my heart has the appearance of pewter
Every month I am inspired to learn something new .. so much thanks to Thealie and Lilibulle for these wonderful challenges! Although I am posting late, I have taken my time to enjoy the process of creating these hearts.

I love October .. it's my favourite time of the year .. Autumn. I even love the Autumn rain. I really enjoyed making this paper collage. The rose stamp is from Hero Arts two birds and a rose. Wishing you a Happy Thanksgiving.
